The first task you have is to select a sample of 40 students. Carefully explain your procedure and reasoning for selecting these 40 students.   Use your sample to describe the high school’s performance as a whole. Produce the proper statistical summaries and graphs.

Next, use your sample to create a 95% confidence interval for the mean SAT math score at this high school. Interpret the interval. Based on your confidence interval, compare the performance of these students with the statewide mean math score of 503.

Your last portion of the project is to address this following question. Nationally males tend to have higher Math scores than Females. Use the sample to determine if that is true at this high school.   Be sure to check all assumptions and conditions when determining the answer to this question.
